Coming together

This morning Grace and Rob and Arden took the grand puubah kayak out for one last sail. They had a blast. When they got back someone was waiting in the driveway to see her and paid cash to drive her home to his kids. This was a big weight off Rob's mind as he was worried about leaving it behind for me to sell. He got more than he paid plus years of enjoyment. Pretty sweet!
The series of blessings we had received in this process so far have been nothing short of miraculous.  Some ward in Palmdale is praying really hard for a new nursery leader is all I can figure.
To recap: Rob applies in August. On a whim and as a long shot and I had no worries that we would actually have to move back to the desert. We hear nothing until February when he does a phone interview that bombs. I'm sorry for him but thrilled to put that behind us and give it not one more thought, which is only 3-4 thoughts less than the past few months anyway.
Then a few weeks ago he gets a phone call and a second interview and a job offer for more $ than he hoped for and its done. 
We begin to prepare the house when my friend Dixie is out working in her yard late one night and feels the whisper of the Spirit telling her to tell her neighbor about our house. She does the next morning and they come over and she loves it. We declutter and paint and she visits the house a couple more times and the day we get a realtor she makes an offer, which we accept.

All things are unfolding in such a smooth, stress free manner that there is no doubt this is what we are supposed to do. 

Do I want to go? Still no. But I will go and we will be happy and find work to do and friends and will be close to family.

Why do we have to? I don't know. I do believe it's the right move for us.  Hopefully whatever we are supposed to do we can do quickly:)
